I'm not entirely certain of the last character (房), but believe the marking in the first picture is read as:

'Zhu ji' (竺記) 'Mark of Zhu'

'Yuan fang' (元房) 'Original house (family lineage)'

Zhu/竺 is a family name, which fits with the rest of the mark. However, it also is a kind of bamboo, which may relate to the construction of the item.

Best regards,

Bill H.
